Oh, and of course this isn't "stable" at all yet, it's under constant
development, and I might accidentally break things at times.  I am using
the openSUSE:Tumbleweed:Testing repo for "big" tests (like the zypper
one currently in there), but I can't guarantee that Tumbleweed will not
cause you problems right now at times.

Greg,

I just tried the Tumbleweed zypper dup process on my laptop.
(Previously I was testing with my desktop.)

Zypper ar went fine.

Zypper dup --from still gave warnings.

A sample from today:

Retrieving package git-core-1.7.3.2-5.1.i586 (10/56), 2.2 MiB (10.5
MiB unpacked)
Retrieving: git-core-1.7.3.2-5.1.i586.rpm [done (580.5 KiB/s)]
Installing: git-core-1.7.3.2-5.1 [done]
Additional rpm output:
warning:
/var/cache/zypp/packages/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/i586/git-core-1.7.3.2-5.1.i586.rpm:
Header V3 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID a840f92c: NOKEY

Odd, have you ever accepted the tumbleweed gpg key? If not, then I
guess this could be happening. But I can't reproduce this at all here
on any of my test machines, or my main laptop.

I think there is something still configured wrong with the depot, but
I don't know how to help/troubleshoot.

===
separate question, when do you think KDE 4.5 (I assume) will get into
tumbleweed? I'm not a maintainer of KDE, but the KDE 4.5 repo seems
like a natural to add to tumbleweed. ie. oS 11.3 has KDE4.4 and
factory has the apparently very unstable 4.6 stuff, so Tumbleweed
having the stable 4.5 release seems a perfect use of Tumbleweed.

Yes, that would be nice to have, but at the moment, we are still working
out how Tumbleweed really will work. I have a ways to go before adding
something "big" like Gnome or KDE major updates. Give me a chance to
get something "simple" like a zypper or xml2 library update working
properly first :)

thanks,

greg k-h
